So far, there are three transmission methods for electric bicycles: chain transmission, shaft transmission, and belt transmission. Each transmission method has its advantages and disadvantages, so how to choose a suitable electric bicycle for your own application becomes very crucial. Today, the editor will talk to you about the advantages and disadvantages of electric bicycles with transmission shafts.
       
Let's first analyze the principle of the transmission shaft. The principle of actually uploading the drive shaft is also very simple. The front of the drive shaft is equipped with a pair of conical transmission gears to change the transmitted torque from horizontal to vertical. Then, the torque is transmitted to the rear part of the drive shaft based on the drive shaft, and then the vertical torque is changed to horizontal by a pair of gear shafts. Finally, the torque is transmitted to the wheels of the car according to the flower drum to complete the propulsion of the car. This principle is similar to the transmission principle of motor vehicles, but its construction is much simpler and relatively simple.
Although the transmission structure of electric bicycles with transmission shafts is simple, electric bicycles with transmission shafts can form higher transmission efficiency, have smoother characteristics, longer durability, and can withstand higher torque. Electric bicycles with transmission shafts can completely prevent chain dropping and breakage during cycling, and are less prone to oil stains and rust from traditional chains, requiring no maintenance.
  
The above mentioned many advantages of electric bicycles with transmission shafts, and the following will analyze their shortcomings. Everything has its strengths and weaknesses. In order to better withstand higher torque and longer service life, the transmission shaft and gear of a axle driven bicycle must be made of 45 # steel with high toughness and wear resistance, and various heat treatment processes must be used to further improve the stiffness of stainless steel plates. Therefore, the net weight will be heavier than the structure of ordinary chains and discs.
Each transmission structure has its own advantages and disadvantages, so choosing the one that is suitable for oneself is better.
